Adam Caplan on Reskilling in the Age of AI – Featured in Forbes

The AI Boom’s Growing Focus on Workforce Reskilling and Career Readiness

Forbes India recently published an article titled “How the AI Boom Has Put the Spotlight on Workforce Reskilling”, exploring how rapid AI adoption and automation are reshaping careers, especially for mid- and senior-level professionals. The piece highlights industry insights on why traditional training models fall short and how companies must rethink upskilling strategies.

Adam Caplan, president of digital business and AI, Altimetrik emphasized that, “Senior employees need clarity on how their experience fits into the evolving landscape and how they can lead, not follow the change,” he says. “Neglecting this segment of the workforce is a strategic misstep. It leads to fragmented execution, lower adoption, and a loss of institutional knowledge.” He explained that leaders today must evolve from being tech-aware to tech-immersed embedding AI and data literacy into decision-making and strategy. Beyond technology, he emphasized the importance of human-centered leadership, where empathy, ethical judgment, and trust become crucial differentiators in a rapidly changing workplace.
